If you work for a company or organisation that offers a “match funding” scheme, you could double your gift to your Church.
Below are organisations that currently match gifts donated by employees – however; but if your employer is not listed, please ask your HR department if they operate a matching gift scheme. The HR department will also tell you how to make a matching gift. They will usually give you a form to fill in; send that to the church to confirm receipt and they will send the church the money. You can email your form or give it to the Vicar or a member of the PCC.
